Multicultural round in the NRL gives the competition a chance to pause and realise the number of nations represented in this great sport.
Now more than ever, players with backgrounds from all around the world have become part of the NRL and make up the phenomenal sport we know and love.
The Pacific Islands are often first to be thought of when the international growth of the game is considered, with players representing those nations left, right and centre despite the lure of playing for either Australia or New Zealand.
Zero Tackle have, after plenty of internal debate, pieced together a list of the top ten multi-national players in the history of the game - that is, a player who has played Test match rugby league for more than one country.
There were plenty to pick from, and some very strong options who missed the list, including the likes of David Fifita and Tino Fa'asuamaleaui out of the current crop, and the likes of Brent Kite, Sika Manu, Michael Jennings, Roy Asotasi and Nigel Vagana alongside a host of others.
Here are our top ten.
1. Roger Tuivasa-Sheck (New Zealand/Samoa)
Tuivasa-Sheck has only played two Tests for Samoa, and so maybe some would argue he shouldn't be quite as high on this list, but the bottom line is his talent has all the potential to make the difference for the island nation in the coming years.
After playing for New Zealand between 2013 and 2019, he joined a growing list of players to make the switch to a Tier 2 nation, and adds the creative spark the Samoans need to challenge.
It seems evident he will now spend the rest of his international career with his birth nation, even though he could have taken the easy way out to keep pushing for a New Zealand jersey.
He certainly wasn't the player to spark the revolution, but he could be one who ensures it continues well into the future.
